Virgin Media Issues Reports Near Croydon, England
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Croydon and nearby locations:
-
Chris 🏳️🌈🇪🇺 (@strutcakes) reported from Lambeth, EnglandCalled Virgin Media to complain about the TV box not working and to get it removed from my package. Somehow ended up singing another 18 month contract with the TV box included but at a reduced price. Not ideal but not horrendous.
-
anne hill (@gorgeousuk) reported from Bromley, England@virginmedia My husband has called because he is the account holder and has a Virgin phone. Virgin apparently will call tonight/tomorrow morning. However, my feeling now is that your service will work for a time and then will go bad, there is a pattern.
-
Tim Hyson (@timhyson) reported from Bromley, England@virginmedia 20 hours of being passed around your customer ‘care’ teams and no progress. And yet I doubt this is even close to a record.
-
traymca 💙 (@traymca) reported from Worcester Park, EnglandProblems again with @virginmedia in Oxford!! When will you get this sorted #virginbroadband #virginmediadown
-
Nigel Ellway (@Nigelellway) reported from Camberwell, England@virginmedia I have no broadband or phone, your online checker doesn't work and neither does your helpline. What's going on?
-
R. Aaron (@aaronuart) reported from Merton, England@virginmedia I rebooted, called the number, it says there is a known issue in my area and engineers are working on it. Does this take 5 days to fix? I try the status online and it tells me everything is fine but it isn’t. Is there anyone looking at this. I’ve never had an issue last this long
-
R. Aaron (@aaronuart) reported from Merton, EnglandMy connection has been crap for months and the one time it’s fine, everyone else is down #virginmedia
-
Charbster (@charbster) reported from Wandsworth, England@virginmedia do you have website issues? Chat function not responding.
-
Philip 🦅 (@Phil_Swallow) reported from Croydon, EnglandThere’s a new Hitron Chita paperweight from @vmbusiness @vmbusinesshelp - it’s expensive but the only thing it can do without going out of service every few minutes
-
Richard 🏳️🌈 (he/him) (@Paul___SW18) reported from Wandsworth, EnglandHey @O2 just struggled down to the shopping centre to take advantage of the @GreggsOfficial free hot drink & treat offer, via my @virginmedia account, (available until 0000 tomorrow apparently) but got here, and offers have disappeared from app or come up as ‘sold out’ 🤬🤬🤬🤬
-
hippychic (@Keldavey) reported from Bromley, England@virginmedia @YogaBear2 Some? Everyone I know With a virgin account in Bromley having problems today including myself. Not worked all day. What's happening, have you been hacked?
-
Millwall halfwayline (@millwalljdb) reported from Camberwell, England@philclarke0170 Virgin media seems to be the problem
-
Rana Rahman (@ranaraptor) reported from Wandsworth, England@virginmedia It’s still not working!! I have this message from your site, “There's a broadband issue in SW11 XXX. Thanks for your patience while we work to fix things as quick as we can. You've registered that an area fault causing a loss of broadband service is affecting you.”
-
Ivan L Petrov 伊凡🇺🇦 (@Ivan_Petrov) reported from Lambeth, England@virginmedia Is there an outage in SW4? I checked the online status on your webpage, but it says there are no issues and yet I do not have internet at home.
-
anne hill (@gorgeousuk) reported from Bromley, England@virginmedia I did and it said the service was ok. It’s now working after several times of going onto Amazon. I just don’t know why the service has become so poor recently
-
#TeamParkinsons Paul (@PJacksonClark) reported from Bromley, England@virginmedia Thanks KF for your speedy reply. But since "Frankie Bot" and I started chatting three hours ago via customer service chat I've been left waiting. Is that as good as it gets?
-
Andy Walker (@educationforum) reported from Worcester Park, England@virginmedia Your customers pay enough to expect 24 hour support. Do better.
-
#AshTag (@Ashley_Rhysss) reported from Southwark, EnglandThe service from @virginmedia is utterly dreadful. Had Wi-Fi issues so they sent someone out to rectify. Worked for 2 days then the same issues started again. Not had working Wi-Fi for the last 3 weeks. If your thinking of going with them for tv / internet, go with someone else.
-
Philip 🦅 (@Phil_Swallow) reported from Croydon, England@redheadlass1402 @virginmedia We’ve got the business service but it’s no better. They don’t seem to have any proactive monitoring or fault prevention and pretty much don’t care. They have a 3 hour service level that passed 12 hours ago, totally useless bunch of money-grabbers
-
Mrs R (@KateRenton) reported from Merton, England@Chelsea1504 @virginmedia That’s why we got rid of ALL providers, the customer service and costs were awful.

-
Paul Turner™ (Personal) (@PaulTurner140) reported@DrealSMAK @virginmedia Don’t waste your time. They only want you to DM them to keep your complaint from public view.
-
nigel (@redwallreality) reported@biggle1908 Virgin media broadband is excellent. Problems start when you phone them…if you understand Indians with a less than rudimentary ability to speak English, go for it.
-
Sam Sheehan (@SamanthaJane_H) reported@virginmedia I did direct message 4 days ago, nobody read or replied. I’ll recap- 2 weeks no service, five engineers sent to diagnose the same problem multiple times, no fix. Complaints team open and close complaints immediately with no resolution. Fix not due for at least another week.

Zoe Smith (@ladyspeakerz) reported@andyburnham PLEASE READ THIS TWEET EVERYONE. IF ANY VIRGIN MEDIA STAFF AT BAGULEY MANCHESTER CALL CENTRE WHERE I WORKED WERE RESPONSIBLE FOR SLANDERING ME / FRAMING ME. THEN HERES PROOF THAT COMPANY ARE A BUNCH OF CRUEL UNETHICAL IMMORAL SCAMMERS YOU DONT THINK IF THEY CAPABLE OF DOING THIS TO THEIR CUSTOMERS WHAT THEY CAPABLE OF DOING TO A WOMAN THEY HATE AND NO DOUBT JEALOUS OF here’s some confirmed validated real evidence NOT THEM BEING FRAMED that the staff at Virgin media call centres were all pardoned allowed to scam MILLIONS of their customers Here is proof Copied and pasted from Google please refer to articles in the press that confirm this what I’ve tweeted here If you think moral decent people do this to their customers scamming them in a cruel cold way SEEK JESUS  Virgin Media was fined a record £28 million by Ofcom in July 2026 for deliberately making it difficult for customers to cancel their contracts and switch to rival providers. Investigation Findings The regulatory investigation covered calls made between January 1, 2022, and September 11, 2024. Ofcom found that MILLIONS of customer service interactions were mishandled to prevent or delay cancellations. Specific tactics included: • Deliberately dropping or hanging up calls when customers asked to cancel. Putting callers on hold for no reason to frustrate them Excessive and unnecessary call transfers between departments. Using a two-tier retention system where only specific agents were allowed to process final cancellations. THIS LOT ARE CONFIRMED CRUEL SCAMMERS

Gary (@gazi1684) reported@virginmedia @rayquannnnnnn Is there a problem in the wallsend area with broadband?
-
Wingssherpa (@WingsSherpa) reported@VirginMedia_TV Shouldn’t it be ‘heavy entertainment’? I’ll look forward to that on Virgin Media Player. Actually, no I won’t because it never puts anything on there for UK viewers.

🇬🇧 Rob @No-Bull-Politics 🇬🇧 (@bull_robin56713) reported@virginmedia I'm sure I'm not alone in having asked you to reduce my service, such as cancelling a second set-top box, in order to reduce my bills. As you can see here I asked for my bills to be reduced in Jan 2024. Yet notice how those bills have crept up again ever since. There has been no increase or improvement in the service you provide to justify this. According to my analysis, despite having gained a better paid job recently, my net income is down 4.2% compared with 5 years ago. Like many, I am going to have to tighten my belt, and those bills that increase without any prior warning must be the first to go.
